A pedestrian hurries across the parking lot at the Canadian Legion over the lunch hour Dec. 1 in Iqaluit, where wind gusts of up to 70 km/h are creating a windchill that makes it feel -45 C in Nunavut's capital today. The wind, expected to last into the night, in combination with blowing snow and ice crystals, is creating low visibility conditions. (PHOTO BY THOMAS ROHNER)
